Introduction 

The internal framework of the human body is represented by the skeleton. At birth, it has about 270 bones; at adulthood, after certain bones have fused together, it has about 206 bones. The skeleton's bone mass accounts for roughly 14% of total body weight and reaches its maximal density at age 21.
